Nag & Matt

Hello everyone! I did my N400 interview yesterday. My spouse was with me and we were nervous because we were not sure if he will be allowed in there with me or not. Our feild office is Orlando, Fl office. My husband was not only allowed inside the building, but he was required to attend the interview. We did a combo interview. The officer started with the I-751 first and said she can't work on the N400 until after she is done with the I-751. So she requested our 2021 taxes (which we submitted with N400) she didn't have them but luckily I had copies of everything. So I gave her both 2022 and 2021 taxes. She then asked if we want to submit any updated evidence. Like insurance cards or pictures which we did. (We don't pay rent or mortgage, she asked about those as well but they were not applicable for us). She had small conversation and we let her know that we just celebrated our 5 years wedding anniversary (4/16). And that we had the week off and we were going to travel but we had to cancel because of the interview. Then she said the I-751 was approved. She looked at my husband and told him to stay silent and asked me if I am ready. She asked the civics questions then reading and writing. She then updated my case, because I changed my work address and received a traffic ticket. I showed her the ticket and the receipt that I paid the ticket. She asked more details about it. She asked me questions from the N400 application as well. Then she said I was approved and to wait for the ceremony. She gave me the paper that says approved. Our interview was at 12:45 pm. And we waited until 3pm for the ceremony. And now I am an American!! Civics questions: Which ocean is on the east coast? What did Susan B Anthony do? What is the capital of your state? In 1803 which territory did the US buy from France? When do we celebrate independence day? What is one right that is only for US citizens? Reading sentence: What state has the most people? Writing sentence: California has the most people. Good luck for everyone else! And make sure you take your spouses with you.

Congratulations!! And thank you for updating us.

Hey! How was your interview? Please update us.

I am in the same boat as both of you. I received the interview letter. (I applied for N 400 in December 2022) And I am worried about the I751 combo interview. I also submitted a self written letter to request the combo interview. Let's see if that helps. And let's keep each other informed. I will post here to keep everyone updated after my interview.

Oh yeah thanks for pointing that out. The video has the speaker of the house wrong. It is Kevin McCarthy now.

Congratulations on the appointment. And that is a great question. I am currently studying for my interview that is scheduled for April 18th. And I could use some advise as well. I found a YouTube video last night that i found incredibly useful because it has the 100 civics test questions categoried into groups which makes it super easy to remember especially that some of these questions are kind of similar. This is the video link: I bookmarked it and I am planning on playing it on repeat lol. I also looked up some videos for common mistakes, or mock interviews, or documents to bring. (Or even the writing test if you are nervous about spelling like I am, I swear these auto-correct features on our phones and computers are a double edged sword lol) I don't have specific ones to recommend but a YouTube search will give you an abundance of videos. Also something that was helpful is a video that explains traffic tickets and how you are supposed to report them, since I have one traffic ticket and the official wording was confusing. I am waiting for other people's suggestions as well. Good luck on your interview!

This is very disappointing. I am sorry you have to go through this. Where is your feild office if you don't mind me asking? My N400 interview is 04/18 at orlando, Fl and I also requested a combo interview but no news on my I-751 yet.

Hello December filers!! I don't know why I haven't seen this thread before. I was following November filers because I couldn't find the December one. Anyway. I received good news yesterday (online, i didn't receive the official letter yet). I got my interview scheduled for 4/18th Orlando, Fl office. I applied for my N400 on 12/25th (yes on Christmas day). Based on the 3 year rule as a citizen's spouse. I have my I-751 pending since February 2022. And I am not sure if they will do combo interview or not because no updates are showing on my I-751 case but I included a cover letter for my N400 application and I requested a combo interview so we will see what happens. Congratulations for everyone that already passed and I will be updating everyone when I do my interview. I am rooting for everyone 🙏

First of all congratulations! Can you tell me what was the deal with the traffic ticket. I just got a traffic ticket 2 weeks ago after I already applied for my N400. I am not sure what to do? Should I just take it with me to the interview?

N400. My I751 is at the National Benefits center. Edit to say, that National Benefits center is the same as the Missouri center. My case number for I751 starts with MSC.

Mine is the same as yours.

Did you apply for the N400 online?

Thank you both for updating us and good luck. Was the "estimated time of approval" on the website accurate? Assuming you filed online.
